I am taking some time off from harmonica lessons due to my increased hours at work in the fall. I hope to resume them in January. I still practice occasionally and believe that I am no longer a beginner, which is awesome. 8 months ago

This summer I made a huge effort to focus on spending time with MY family. I took vacations with both sets of nieces and nephews and spent more time with my father and grandmother. This was all time well-spent and I hope that I can continue to make this a priority. 8 months ago

Did some research and learned how and when to plant them. I also learned about what types grow best in my climate. Now I just need to wait for the opportune moment. 8 months ago

During my several visits to Arizona, I have observed that Arizonians live a more relaxed, uplifting and positive life than where I am from. They also are health conscious. I also think that the sunlight makes them more cheerful by nature. I would like to be more like them. 8 months ago

I think that I may deserve an aunt award by the end of this summer.
At the beginning of the summer, my husband and I spend a week at Disney with one set of nieces and nephew. Then we spent a weekend at the beach with another set. Today the third set of nieces are spending the day at our house playing video games. And finally, next week my oldest niece will be staying with us for a week.
I miss out on so much of their lives during the year that I make a strong effort to see them in the summer. But this summer has included an impressive amount of time with them, especially when you consider that the ones located closest to us are 120 miles away. 10 months ago

The goal for the year has been achieved, but I think that I will continue to maintain the list until the end of the year just to see how many I attend.
Performance #6 was by a band called Funk Station. While they did not play one funk song during the two sets that we watched, they were an outstanding and extremely entertaining Southern Rock band that played at a townie place called Your Mama’z House with a river as the backdrop. We had a great time! 10 months ago

I honestly think that after all of these years, I have finally gotten my job in perspective. It is important,but it isn’t me and is not the most important thing in my life. I hope that this can continue. 11 months ago
